Reposted: Chasing the Scream – Interview with Johann Hari (Full interview)
Over the next five weeks I’ll be taking a break for the Southern Hemisphere Christmas and Summer Holiday. So each week I’ll be posting one of my interview podcasts from the last year. New Episodes from the 20th January. Happy Holidays everyone!
This week on the Confident Mind I talk with Johann Hari about his new book “Chasing the Scream: The First and last Days of the War on Drugs”.
Johann is a British journalist who has written for many of the world’s leading newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times, Le Monde, the Guardian, the Los Angeles Times, the New Republic, the Nation, Slate, El Mundo, and the Sydney Morning Herald. He was a lead op-ed columnist for the Independent, one of Britain’s leading newspapers, for nine years.
Johann was named ‘National Newspaper Journalist of the Year’ by Amnesty International twice. He was named ‘Environmental Commentator of the Year’ at the Editorial Intelligence awards, and ‘Gay Journalist of the Year’ at the Stonewall awards. He has also won the Martha Gellhorn Prize for political writing.
